RIP Rev.

Did great stuff, and when he was a flawed man, he fessed, apologized.

That's rare, the introspection, and making progress through a vast dynamic of powerful forces where being allied was crucial for the success of his ideals and plans.

Liked Bill in the end.

Hillary looked to find to be obnoxious.

Should of leveraged his support of Bernie for her to make him Veep, maybe he tried, her arrogance as a front runner...reason in part she lost.

If the opposition was made up of only Sakit's likely would of become Prez...as that fucking plop-o-cunt makes a MAGA retard look like a genius  ngc3

Larry describes your best nine minutes into his video.

Larry is also an admitted racefixing cheat who waited decaded to tell the truth. Real stand up guy.  tmbz1

Who Larry Rolla is

He was born in Queens, New York, and became involved in harness and thoroughbred racing as a young man.

He spent over 60 years training and driving racehorses, competing in thousands of harness races nationwide.

He is described in industry media as a former Standardbred (harness racing) driver and trainer.

He later wrote a book called Against All Odds and hosts podcasts about his life in racing and the criminal underworld connected to it.

Why his name is associated with race fixing

The key point is this:

In interviews and podcasts, Rolla himself has claimed that at one point in his life he became involved in fixing horse races for organized crime (the mob).

His book and podcast describe his experiences in what he calls the “tainted world of horse racing” involving corruption, drugs, and mob influence.

He also reportedly received multiple lifetime bans from racing, though details depend on the specific jurisdiction and era.

Important clarification

Larry Rolla is not a current major mainstream harness racing figure like drivers such as Scott Zeron or Cat Manzi.

Most references to race fixing involving Rolla come from his own accounts and storytelling, books, podcasts, and interviews—not modern court convictions widely documented in official racing commission records.

Bottom line

Larry Rolla was a real harness racing trainer/driver.

He later became known for claiming involvement in race fixing earlier in his career and describing corruption tied to organized crime.

Today he is primarily known as an author, storyteller, and podcast personality recounting those experiences.

At 9 minutes in this video Larry speaks of you in volumes. If you were a man, you would admit your shortcomings and put things aside and wish the man well but you’re not your pure evil wishing ill on a man that is sick.

Also, you might want to consider some of the women on this website because every other word out of your mouth is the C word!

Oh that's right, you believe anything.  ngc3 ngc3 ngc3
No I'm not a racefixing cheat who took money from others illicitly altering the outcome of legalized gambling events.  tmbz1

Jesse Jackson  had an extra marital affair had an illegitimate child. He also faced workman harassment cases. He claimed that he had Martin Luther King’s head in his arms that proved to be false.

Regardless rest in peace, sir.
